Wonderful Will

A Bridgnorth youngster has been selected to represent England in volleyball. Will Evans, who’s 16, will represent England in the under 19s Cornacchia Volleyball World Cup in Pordenone, Italy.

This is the second time Will, who is one of the youngest players in the squad, has represented his country in the past year. He was also chosen to play in Denmark last October in the North European Nevza Championships.

Will, a former pupil at Bridgnorth Endowed, is captain of the Tettenhall Tigers, who play in the West Midlands League, and he also plays for the Black Country men’s team in the National Volleyball League. He represents national champs West Midlands in the U17 age group and is the current West Midlands U16 Beach Volleyball champion.
